FIG. 2 is a schematic flowchart of a face spatial positioning method according to an embodiment of the present disclosure, the method shown in FIG. 2 comprises:

S101, obtaining a facial image acquired by an image acquisition device;

S102, performing facial area detection on the facial image, to determine position information of a facial area in the facial image; and

S103, determining spatial position information of the face according to the position information of the facial area.

Exemplarily, the facial image in S101 may be acquired in real time by the image acquisition device. Optionally, the facial image may be one frame of image in real-time video acquired by the image acquisition device. The image acquisition device may be a camera or the like.

Exemplarily, S102 may comprise inputting a facial image to a facial detection model to obtain an output. This output is position information of the facial area. The facial detection model may be a Convolutional Neural Network (CNN).

The output of the facial detection model may be coordinates of a facial rectangle box, that is, the area where the face is located is a rectangular area. Correspondingly, face coordinates of the rectangular area in the coordinate system of the facial image may be determined in S102.

For example, the output may include four values. As an example, the four values represent coordinates of the upper left corner and the lower right corner of the rectangular box; as another example, the four values represent coordinates of the lower left corner and the upper right corner of the rectangular box; as another example, the four values represent coordinates of any vertex (such as the top left corner or bottom left corner) of the rectangular box and a length and a width of the rectangle box.

As an example, the output may be represented as (x, y, w, h), wherein (x, y) may represent coordinates of the upper left corner of the rectangular box; w and h represents a width and a height of the rectangular box, as shown in FIG. 3. In addition, referring to FIG. 3, the width and the height of the facial image may be represented as W and H.

Exemplarily, spatial position information of the face may include a distance and an angle between the face and the image acquisition device. S103 may comprise: determining a distance and an angle between the face and the image acquisition device according to the position information of the facial area.

Specifically, in consideration of that the distance between the face and the image acquisition device is inversely proportional to a size of the detected rectangular box of the face, that is, the greater the distance between the face and the image acquisition device is, the smaller the detected rectangle box is, the distance and angle between the face and the image acquisition device may be determined according to the following formula.

First, a dimension of the facial area (i.e., the rectangular box) determined in the facial image may be calculated as s=w×h. Further, it may be determined that the distance between the face and the image acquisition device is r=min(T/s,r0), that is,

$r = {{\min\left( {\frac{T}{w \times h},{r\; 0}} \right)}.}$

Herein, r0 indicates the longest distance within which the image acquisition device performs facial recognition, and T indicates an inverse proportional coefficient. Specifically, r0 represents a maximum distance between all points on a radar map of the image acquisition device and the origin on the radar map, that is, if the distance between a point on the radar map and the origin is greater than or equal to the distance between any other point on the radar map and the origin, then the distance between this point and the origin is the farthest distance, it may be set according to performance of the image acquisition device and scene requirements, so that r is calculated by taking a minimum value, those exceeding r0 may be all set as r0 T is an inverse proportional coefficient, it may be set according to a size of the face box at the longest distance r0. For example, it is assumed that the size of the detected rectangular box of the face is s0 if there is a distance r0 from the image acquisition device, it can be determined that T=r0×s0.

Next, coordinate of the center point of the rectangular box in the horizontal direction may be calculated as x_(c)=x+w/2, and further, the angle between the face and the image acquisition device may be determined as α=(1−x_(c)/W)×π, that is,

$\alpha = {\left( {1 - \frac{x + {w/2}}{W}} \right) \times {\pi.}}$

As will be appreciated, the range of α is [0,π].

Accordingly, the spatial position information of the face in the facial image can be obtained by the method described in FIG. 2. The position may be a relative position between the face and the image acquisition device, expressed in the form of polar coordinates (r,α). As will be appreciated, the position may also be expressed as a form of (r×cos α,r×sin α) in the Cartesian coordinate system.

Exemplarily, position of the face may be marked in the radar map of the image acquisition device, as shown in FIG. 4. The point O may represent the position of the image acquisition device, and the distance between the face and the point O shown in FIG. 4 is the distance r between the face and the image acquisition device as described above, and the angle α between the line connecting the face shown in FIG. 4 and the point O and the horizontal direction is the angle between the face and the image acquisition device as described above. In this way, the relative position between the face and the image acquisition device, such as the distance and the angle, can be determined based on the spatial position information of the face obtained in S103. In this way, positioning of a person can be achieved. Further, the specific position of the face in the three-dimensional real space can be determined in combination with information such as a person's posture (sitting posture, standing posture, bending, etc.) and height.

As an implementation manner, if the facial image in S101 is one frame of image in a video stream, and only one face is included in the facial image, then, the method shown in FIG. 2 is executed on each frame of image in the video stream acquired by the image acquisition device, and the spatial position information of the face in the video stream at each frame can be determined, so that a spatial motion trajectory of the face (or simply referred to as a motion trajectory) can be determined.

Exemplarily, considering N frames of images in the video stream, spatial position information of the face in each frame of the image can be determined, and a link line of these positions in a chronological order may represent the motion trajectory. One possible motion trajectory 401 is shown in FIG. 4.

Similarly, as will be appreciated, if at least two faces are included in the facial image acquired by the image acquisition device in S101, the spatial position information of each face may be separately determined by referring to the above description. For example, it is assumed that the facial image in S101 includes two faces, and the rectangular areas determined in S102 are represented as (x1, y1, w1, h1) and (x2, y2, w2, h2), respectively, the spatial position information of the corresponding faces may be determined as (r1, α1) and (r2, α2) respectively in S103.

As another implementation manner, if the facial image in S101 is one frame of image in a video stream, and the facial image includes at least two faces, then the motion trajectory of each face can be determined separately.

Specifically, one face A among them is taken as an example for discussion. It is assumed that the rectangular box in which the face resides in the t-th frame is represented as (x_(t),y_(t),w_(t),h_(t)), and its spatial position information is (r_(t),α_(t)). For multiple faces in the (t+1)-th frame of image, it is first determined which one of multiple faces belongs to the same person as the face A.

Optionally, rectangular boxes where multiple faces in the (t+1)-th frame of image reside separately may be determined, first it is determined whether the face represented by the rectangular box which is closest to (x_(t),y_(t),w_(t),h_(t)) belongs to the same person as the face A; if it is determined that they do not belong to the same person after judgment, it is further determined whether the face represented by the rectangular box which is next closet belongs to the same person as the face A, . . . until a rectangular box belonging to the same person as the face A is found. Further, the spatial position information (r_(t+1),α_(t+1)) of the face A at the (t+1)-th frame may be determined according to a rectangular box (assumed to be (x_(t+1),y_(t+1),w_(t+1),h_(t+1)) that belongs to the same person as the face A found in the (t+1)-th frame image.

In this way, it is possible to similarly determine which face in the next frame of image belongs to the same person based on the face in each frame of image, and finally determine the motion trajectory of the face.

Herein, when judging whether it belongs to the same person, a face recognition model may be used. Exemplarily, if it is determined whether the face A and the face B belong to the same person, a first feature vector of the face A may be determined, and a second feature vector of the face B may be determined. A distance between the first feature vector and the second feature vector is calculated to obtain a similarity between the face A and the face B. If the calculated similarity is greater than a predefined threshold, the face A and the face B are considered as belonging to the same person. The predefined threshold may be set according to scene requirements and the like.

Exemplarily, a step length for a definite position may be set, and positions in the corresponding frames may be determined with this step length as an interval. Optionally, the motion trajectory within a period of time length may be further determined.

For example, it is assumed that the step length is p frames. For the t-th frame to the (t+N)-th frame, the spatial position information (r_(t),α_(t)) of the face at the t-th frame may be determined; the spatial position information (r_(t+p),α_(t+p)) of the face at the (t+p)-th frame is determined; and the spatial position information (r_(t+2p),α_(t+2p)) of the face at the (t+2p)-th frame is determined, and so on, and so forth. In this way, the motion trajectory of the face during the t-th frame to the (t+N)-th frame can be determined according to └N/p┘ positions, and specifically, the spatial trajectory can be obtained by sequentially linking the spatial position information according to a chronological order. This process can greatly reduce the amount of calculation, specifically, reducing the amount of calculation to 1/p, which reduces hardware requirements, and improves calculation efficiency.

Accordingly, the embodiments of the present disclosure can determine spatial position information of the face according to the facial image acquired by only one image acquisition device, and no additional image acquisition device is needed, which can reduce the cost and ensure the processing efficiency. Furthermore, a motion trajectory of the face can be determined based on the spatial position information of the face.

It can be understood that, further, the motion trajectory may be analyzed to determine whether abnormal or dangerous behaviors can be analyzed out, such as pedestrians staying in a passage for a long time, and retrograding in the flow of people. Further, according to an analysis result of the motion trajectory, corresponding prompts or alarms or the like can be made.
